Oasis - Definitely Maybe

Britpop? Hear Liam’s snarl and the raucous wall-of-sound guitars on Columbia and Bring It On Down, and tell us Oasis didn’t have Never Mind The Bollocks nestled among Revolver and Who’s Next in their record collections

The Prodigy - The Fat Of The Land

Punk attitude and Jim Davies’ distinctive guitar playing met dance music, then they came to blows. Your mum and dad were as aghast at Keith Flint snarling out Firestarter on Top Of The Pops as their parents had once been at Johnny Rotten.

Gallows - Grey Britain

The Watford five’s landmark second album – and thus far their last with Frank Carter on vocals – is the closest British punk has dared get to the bitter disenchantment and ferocity of the Pistols in the last decade. And they delivered it live in the flesh every single time.
